Points:

Rules:
GTP OLR Rules
- Please familiarize yourself with these rules prior to racing.
- All regular rules and regulations apply - regardless of who is in what car on which track.
- Clean, fair racing & courteous track etiquette is required at all times. We expect racers to exhibit gentlemanly sportsmanship. 👍
- If someone else is flouting the rules, you report them after the race and they will be warned, receive penalties, or in a serious case expulsion from the league.
- Retaliation, "payback", or monkey-see-monkey-do rule flouting will not be tolerated.
- In a case where a racer fails to make contact concessions, the concession will be applied post-race.
- In the case a driver did not complete the previous race, that driver will be 1st on grid according to RGO, so to make things fair, that driver will also be obliged to drive the car listed as #2 (or the corresponding car if using the modified lists). (to prevent scoffing)
- In case a driver has left the lounge in between races for any reason, that driver will be in front on the grid according to RGO. If the car assignment is #1 the driver will keep that car assignment, for all other car assignments that driver will take #2 car instead. (to prevent scoffing)
- In order to keep everyone honest, and that no mistakes are made - drivers will note the car they themselves should be in PLUS the driver on the finishing grid in front of them (in the case of #1 - check the last place racer's car)
- Drivers must have all list cars prepared and drive the assigned car according to the car assignment rules.
- In a case where a racer cannot get in the proper car, they must sit out the race and follow the rule for skipped races. (Or if all present agree, take the #1 car, or corresponding car if using the modified lists.)
- Since Race #1 cars are assigned by season points standings within the scheduled division... When a new racer joins who was not present for the previous event on the schedule, that person will be assigned the position after the last number in points standings, and drive that car for Race #1. (ie: if the driver lowest in points standings is #8, the new driver(s) will be assigned #9.)

- While the purpose is to create closer more exciting and interesting racing among various racers of various experience with a variety of models on track... The car assignment list is not meant to be "fair" nor a perfect parity/disparity scheme. It is meant to be much like a shuffle race, and subject to a great deal of random chance.
- If you enjoy shuffle racing, you may like this even better. 👍
- If you don't like shuffle racing, &/or you find Reverse Grid Order frustrating, this is not the race series for you.
- This is a friendly league of racing pals, open & welcoming to all skill levels, and will provide challenge for all in a fun competition using luxury model cars with a variety of power & handling, on sports hard tires.
- Grumpy drivers & poor sports need not apply.
Healthy sense of humour here is a plus+! 👍
